I've seen a guy asking for advice about lotteries and it got me thinking. I don't understand why people even like lotteries. You don't do much, most likely lose and have to wait for the outcome for a long time. Perhaps, people are interested in the possibility of winning, but that would mean they are not really into gambling as the process. So what is it for you, do you play only for the sake of winning or do you care about the process of playing/researching/anticipating the outcome? I think that the process is that is attractive in gambling, and while the outcome surely matters, I would not like to wait for a long while to learn it.
The worst of that is when they always play a lottery and they did not feel the outcome because they did not win because lotto have a lot of combination numbers and the probability that a player can win is under 1% or very low on that very percentage.

People who are playing gambling are betting on that game for them to able to win and I don't know the other reason they do that because they want to be rich or change their status in life to afford everything they want to buy and fulfill their needs.
